Nah - it's funny alright, but it is all about empowered feminism and pro-political Left/Right propaganda. Actually the "politics is just, honest and true" crap is being pushed even stronger now.
The main character is a bona-fide super-woman, who is goofy, but the most competent human being on earth - and a public servant at that.
How much of the show have you watched?
She fucks up everything, constantly, throughout the majority of the first 5 or so seasons.
And it's usually Ron or Chris (and even sometimes Ben) who bails her and the rest of the office out.

Most men are manginas, Blue Pill suckers, Betas who get the hot girls or complete idiots - masculine, but dumb.
Chris is none of what you just said. He's extremely driven, intelligent, classically handsome and well-dressed, good with women, and consistently shown as the voice of reason in many episodes.
Neither was Mark, who was an architect, picked up girls at bars, and pumped and dumped Leslie for the more feminine Ann.
Neither is Ron. They all have their eccentricities, but they're typically portrayed as intelligent and reasonable. Even Ben is typically shown as being smarter than Leslie.

The Ron Swanson character is of course great, but that is propaganda too, because it catches all men within the web of deceit. You see - he married a post-wall single mother and adopted her children as her own. Then he fully supports and loves "strong" women.
If all of the characters were perfect, it wouldn't be a comedy. Ron is shown as very reasonable and reserved, except when it comes to women. It's supposed to be funny, not propaganda.
As for the "strong" women part, he treats almost every woman on the show like a child.

The main demographic for the show are the Christian values Midwest folk who are edged further along the feminist path, are told fairy-tales about super-women, their men are encouraged to be better Betas and they are re-sold the lie about the political process being just an honest exchange of opinions (while in reality both parties are serving the same money masters in complete utter debauchery & greed). Many politicians, senators and even Michelle Obama are doing cameos on the show, which is a good indicator that they are pulling great propaganda-cinema.
Bad-mouthing MRAs is of course part of the agenda. Also I would not overstress the importance of the comments. Many MRA supporters flock to the site as soon as such an article breaks. Our knowledge may seep in, but they are not dumb. In the worst case, they simply close the comment section like some Newspapers. They will never let the 'sphere go mainstream. Even if they do, then they will push Tucker Max or some kind of Better-Beta snake-oil salesman.
Maybe we're watching a different TV show, because none of the women in the show are portrayed as super women. Leslie is portrayed as a bumbling idiot for pretty much the entire show. And in fact, the more competent women, like the head of the rival town or the campaign manager, are portrayed as callous bitches and shown in a negative light.
They constantly play up how unattractive Leslie and how much she struggles with men, while constantly referring to the fairly feminine and submissive Ann as pretty with many suitors.
